==="I wanna go fast"===

Ricky Bobby was born "to go fast". He was born in the back seat of his race car-driving father's car in the town of West River, North Carolina. He was raised by his mother Lucy Bobby ([[Jane Lynch]]). Reese Bobby ([[Gary Cole]]), his alcoholic, pot-dealing father, wasn't around. One morning, while his mother waswent atinto the grocery store to cry and get some milk, Ricky climbed into the driver's seat and, using a [[wiffle ball]] bat to press the pedals, took his mama's station wagon on a high-speed joy ride.

After ten years, Ricky finally met his father when he showed up for career day at Ricky's school. He told Ricky, "If you ain't first, you're last", a motto that stuck with Ricky for the rest of his life.
